Why we built it

What happens if this account gets compromised?

The answer is rarely in one tool. You need to know what the person can access, whether their device is patched, which apps they have authorised and what cloud resources they own. Then someone has to put it all together.

Sidharth Kaushik founded GovernSafe in Sydney to make that work easier. We are building a platform that connects those details, including the policies, controls and remediation work the person is responsible for.

That is why GovernSafe covers more than one part of security. An access review, a missing patch and a cloud misconfiguration can all be part of the same problem.

The platform

What we bring together

Follow the connections between a person, their devices, cloud resources and the work needed to secure them.
